It's probably because the pupil is longer and actually touches his eyelid. if you made it not touch, it would look more focused on Link. Aside from that, Dark Link's face is good - the shading is nice and delicate on it.

In Link's case, his face seems alot more lumpy and his arm looks just a bit too thick. Perhaps those things are more to my personal preference though.

The background and the shiny triforce are beautiful, by the way. You always seem to do buildings really nicely ^_^
Jeez! Maybe that reference pic was a life saver.

I can't help but concur on some of your comments.
You're right about Dark Links eyes - I went a bit wild with the pupils,
I think I'm gonna make them smaller, initially because I want him looking a bit more sinister, but hopefully it'll straighten out his eyes too.

My reference for Dark Link's skin tone was actually that of Gollums.
Unfortuantly, when I tried cutting him up a bit, he looked like he had make up on.

As for everything on Link - Maybe Jackie Chan wasn't such a good reference for a white, teenager. He does look a bit goofy.

I purposely had the triforce shine to split the picture in two.
